     *     step before advancing to the next step on the restart
     *     database.
     *
     *     For example, if restarts are being output every 0.1
     *     seconds and the overlay count is specified as 2, then
     *     restart will write time 0.1 to step 1 of the database.
     *     It will then write 0.2 and 0.3 also to step 1.  It will
     *     then increment the database step and write 0.4 to step 2;
     *     overlay 0.5 and 0.6 on step 2...  At the end of the
     *     analysis, assuming it runs to completion, the database
     *     would have times 0.3, 0.6, 0.9, ... However, if there
     *     were a problem during the analysis, the last step on the
     *     database would contain an intermediate step.
     *
     *     The cycle_count specifies the number of restart steps
     *     which will be written to the restart database before
     *     previously written steps are overwritten.
     *
     *     For example, if the cycle count is 5 and restart is written every 0.1
     *     seconds, the restart system will write data at times 0.1, 0.2, 0.3,
     *     0.4, 0.5 to the database.
     *
     *     It will then overwrite the first step with data from time 0.6, the
     *     second with time 0.7.  At time 0.8, the database would contain data at
     *     times 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.4, 0.5.  Note that time will not necessarily be
     *     monotonically increasing on a database that specifies the cycle
     *     count.
     *
     *     The cycle count and overlay count can both be used at the same time
     *     also.  The basic formula is:
     *
     *            db_step = (((output_step - 1) / overlay) % cycle) + 1
     *
     *     where "output_step" is the step that this would have been on the
     *     database in a normal write (1,2,3,....) and "db_step" is the step
     *     number that this will be written to.
